The mother of one of the 15 U.S. soldiers killed on Sunday when Iraqis downed a U.S. helicopter has publicly questioned why U.S. troops are still in Iraq. After hearing that her 22-year-old son Specialist Darius Jennings had died, Harriet Johnson said, “I really don’t understand why they’re over there. There saying they don’t want us over there and they will continue to kill American soldiers. … Why don’t someone take heed and bring them from over there.”
